Flash furnace electrostatic precipitator dust (FF-ESP dust) is a recycle stream in some primary copper production facilities. This contains high amounts of copper. In cases, the FF-ESP elevated levels bismuth and arsenic, both which cause problems during electrorefining stages production. Because this, methods for separation from arsenic are necessary. Hydrometallurgical leaching using number l...

Background: Vocal abuse and misuse would result in vocal fold polyp. Certain features define the extent of vocal folds polyp effects on voice acoustic parameters. The present study aimed to define the effects of polyp size on acoustic voice parameters, and compare these parameters in hemorrhagic and non-hemorrhagic polyps.Methods: In the present retrospective study, 28 individuals with hemorrha...

in this study, an intelligent system for sorting closed shell and open shell pistachio nuts, was designed and developed based on combined acoustic and artificial neural network (ann) techniques. the system included a microphone, pc, material handling equipment and an air reject pneumatic mechanism. the microphone, placed under the steel plate, received sound signals generated by the pistachio n...

background acoustic trauma is an injury to the hearing mechanisms in the inner ear due to excessive noise. this injury is the most prevalent cause of sensorineural hearing loss in humans, especially from occupational exposure. previous studies have shown the essential role of free radical formation in the inner ear hearing loss caused by acoustic trauma. objectives this study was performed to d...
